  1. The Dainton Banker liked Meatman's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

    I can accept the outcome of the vote even if id wished one other nominee to have been elected especially having spent at least 90 minutes on Saturday afternoon in that persons presence along with a few others listening to a lot of common sense...

    Likewise, surely, there is never any reason for a trustee or other official to shout at (much less strike - as has occurred previously) a trust member?

    Agreed. But there seems to be a massive amount of non-confidential information which is being withheld or deliberately obscured.

    I’m aware of the land issues. That doesn’t mean a tiny, expensive extension is the sensible option. Parracombe is obviously a non starter for the medium term, so why antagonise the locals by trying to push things? Why not look at other options?

    Where exactly is a positive outcome, the meeting was an embarrassment for the trust, today not only have many members expressed their disappointment in the way the meeting was handled, but also the way in which certain trustee's acted and also...

    Congratulations to the four elected trustees and in particular the three new members of the board. You join at an interesting time. My heartfelt thanks go also to those willing to put themselves forward to take on the role, even though they were...

    Does that not tell you that either the trustees are not communicating properly with the members, or, that what they are communicating has been found to be untrue?

    We could blame the Chairman and his mates on the board for harassing and hounding the only female off the board… That’s a lot of assumptions you’ve made to rule someone out. How do you know how much spare time someone has? How do you know that...

  9. The Dainton Banker liked RailWest's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

    Firstly the consultation was limited to a "pick 1 of 4" options, it was clearly not an attempt to garner all the possible ideas from the membership and then look for the more realistic choices. Secondly, Option 'C' in the opinion of many was...

  10. The Dainton Banker liked Tobbes's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

    There also needs to be a governance review to update the M&As, and the five year plan - a good idea - needs to take stock of what is a sensible set of extension goals through an open and honest engagement and options appraisal - last year's mock...

  11. Bluenosejohn liked Duty Druid's post in the thread Mid Hants Railway Operational Matters.

    By 'Eck, it were a tad on the warm side atop the hill yesterday! So much so, that as the day got hotter, the work rate slowed down and the drinks breaks increased as there's no escape from the sun. Still, that didn't stop the six hardy souls...
